Scottish Independence Live Events

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This was a contested speedy deletion. This reads entirely like an advert, and fails WP:GNG and WP:CORP. Joseph2302 (talk) 23:20, 19 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - fails GNG; only a handful of results and most related to crowdfunding —Мандичка YO 😜 23:40, 19 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Grassroots media organisation ignored by mainstream media: doesn't meet WP:CORP - mainly results on social media, Reddit, Indiegogo, campaigning websites, etc. Colapeninsula (talk) 17:05, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment The organisation is most widely known as "Independence Live", so that should really be the pagename rather than "Scottish Independence Live Events" — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mulvenna (talk • contribs) 20:57, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - for notability consider the recent round-up of alternative media coverage of the UK general election as reported by the Scottish Television news, the Common Space feature and the scholarly request for access to the Independence Live archive from the National Library of Scotland. (Note that Common Space is staffed by professional journalists.) Mulvenna (talk) 14:58, 21 May 2015 (UTC) — Mulvenna (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Davewild (talk) 19:33, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete: The content doesn't measure up, and one reason is, as was noted above, the actually notable topic/keyword would be Independence Live, not "Scottish Independence Live Events." The unwieldly name is an indicator of the intent and source of the article, I suspect. Hithladaeus (talk) 02:14, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
